Sure, you can accuse me and Tetrasodium of trolling, but I want to acknowledge something real fast. In general? Me and Tetrasodium do not agree, we end up bickering a lot in fact, because generally I find his points extreme and poorly thought out. And in this case? I've been agreeing with him. There are a lot of problems here, and for whatever reason people want to ignore them in favor of calling us trolls. Just as an example, here is a problem followed by "solutions" I've seen offered:1) Halflings are specifically said to use sticks and rocks to defend their homes in the official dnd 5e lore on halflings. This would not be adequate against many threats.a) We should ignore this, because the official book is stupid and it isn't worth readingb) Logically they would use more than those , so we should just assume that they use actual weapons instead of sticks and stones, because that doesn't make sense. So, we ignore the lore.c) Since these miliatary tactics mentioned for defending their homes are in the section about their goddess of war and defense, we should assume these are simply religious devotions and not military tactics for defending their homes like we are told. We should ignore the lore, and simply replace it with what makes sense. d) Other races don't specify how they defend themselves, but they do, so we must assume that halflings do. Therefore we should ignore the lore and just assume they do what everyone else does. Which isn't specified.Are you seeing a pattern? Ignore, ignore, ignore. It doesn't address the problem, it just declares the problem doesn't exist.</blockquote>
